Hello Tyler. Can you please tell me about the outro song in your The meeting of Johns video. I think it's is D Minor and sounds like the chords could be D E slide to F A, something like that. And the tuning could be Drop D or Open D. Please point me to the full track. Please.

Yeah some people say that he's sloppy but these are mostly instances when he was high on drugs. His rhythm play was just from another world. It's very difficult to nail his style. The greats have a lot of idiosyncrasies that are incredibly hard to copy. Just listen to B.B. King. His solos are nothing complicated but to nail his vibrato and phrasing is incredibly difficult no matter how good you are. With Hendrix it's the flow like you described. Best example for me would be castles made of sand. What an amazing rhythm guitarist he was man... I learned this year to play Minor Swing from Django Reinhardt. Do you know it? It's Gypsy jazz and very hard to play. I can say I have mastered it mostly now and it's a very satisfying feeling.

Hendrix would live with his instrument being an extension of his body. He would just wear it and walk around with it on and play during free time. My advice is also #45, take a few day break from guitar, just listen to other music when i do this , for some reason I play stuff I normally wouldn't. Also play other instruments, you can learn techniques and licks and stuff from that and it forces you to play differently. Oh and get a rival, compete with your friends to improve and push each other and learn from each other.Go to music stores and ask to jam with people,especially the older more experienced guys. Its better than watching shredders and wishing you could trade all of your skill just to play that one song, eventually that will change so don't be the next "shredder name" be the next you ;)

I thoroughly agree with Rocksmith. I love it and can’t stop playing it. Wanna give you advice on how to get the best sound from the game. Let’s say for example you play the game on a PS4. Using the audio directly from the tv will cause an audio delay from your guitar to what you hear. Use a third party speaker system like surround sound or whatever. Plug the console directly to the speaker and void the audio from the tv. This will almost 100% get rid of the audio delay and give you a better quality sound if you use high quality speakers. Sorry for the long post just really adamant about Rocksmith and wanna help out your future experience with it

I really developed my ear over the years in the 'shed & ruined a lot of vinyl (went through 2 Iron Maiden "Piece of Mind" albums alone). It really comes down to discipline & how much you really love playing music.

About that keyboard tip - when I was in music school, the theory classroom always had a picture of keyboard hanging on the wall. It was like a periodic table of elements on a chemistry class or a map on a geography class. Everything was explained on a keyboard, and everybody was familiar with a keyboard, regardless of which instrument they played. Getting familiar with a keyboard is a great way to familiarize yourself with the relationships between the notes (intervals, chords, scales) because keyboard is so nicely and logically laid out.

I used to get into the habit of only learning certain parts of songs which were interesting to me, but actually playing the full songs in rocksmith meant I learned so much more.

Apparently they're working on a new project and finishing expanding Rocksmith 2014, I'm excited to see where it ends up.

That tip you mentioned where you flipped over your guitar is a really good one, I do that a lot and it's crazy how far I've come even though I still don't consider myself a guitarist. And also, the thing you said where piano translates to guitar is spot on, I'm primarily a pianist but those skills really translated to guitar beautifully. Specifically with the musicality and improvisation. Pretty much everything you said here is spot on and makes for great advice for new guitarists, well done!

When I first started playing guitar, I chose songs with very advanced rhythm sections. "One" by Metallica was one of the first 30 songs I learned. It's such a long song that I actually gained new guitar skills as I learned it. And I was great at it on Guitar Hero 3. So I HAD to play it IRL. The single note stuff in the intro was perfect for me starting out. I learned a fairly complex single note rhythm section for the verses. Power chords in the chorus were nice and easy but sounded sick. The clean fill solos were a step up and took more time to master than anything else yet. The bridge with the 7 strum machine gun chugga parts was extremely important in learning to control tremolo picking and palm muting and ending on an unmuted note. That solo took me quite a bit to master, but one day before I'd even been playing for 1.5 years, I could play it well enough for my OCD ass to be satisfied. Putting it all together to show off for my best friend who was bad at guitar but got me introduced was one of the greatest feelings I'd ever had as a teenager. ❤

Slashzoidguitar456 whatever you do , save up your money. I know I’m just a stranger but you don’t realize how much more focus you get naturally when you buy a brand new guitar that is 1000$ - 2000$ . If you are a fender guy , go with 1,500 & up ( ultra ) if your a Gibson guy , at least 1,800$ - 2,500 $ . Anything below that is fine but not near what the extra money gets you . I learned That the hard way & I worked hard and now have multiple guitars I will own until I’m old .

For me, having music I was passionate about was helpful so that I had an image of the musicians I wanted to be like and the type of music I aspired to one day be able to play. The other thing was to actually shell out a little extra cash on my guitar because nothing kills the passion like a crappy guitar to learn on. My first guitar was an old fender starcaster acoustic, which, while typically an alright line of guitars, this one had the most obnoxious edges on the frets that I cut my hands on more than one time, and it made me give up on it a few times. I came back with a new passion as I got more into the music I listened to and finally decided to get a telecaster on sale for around the high $300 range, and I loved it. Never stopped learning and practicing after I got it.

similar to #45, but about 10 years ago I was practicing everyday until I got tendinitis and that sucked so bad. After getting over that, I changed my routine to where I practice 6 days a week (usually an hour a day depending on the day) and have one day a week where I don't touch a guitar. Most weeks, that is Saturday for a few reasons (spend uninterrupted time with the girlfriend, go out and travel, etc....). Have had zero issues with injury and motivation since adopting that 6 day a week practice schedule. Also tied into this is TRAVEL! Really hard to be inspired if all you do is stay at home all the time (obviously after quarantine is over). Go experience life and more often than not, something will inspire you.
